Once logged in, you will find a user-friendly interface. On the right side, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. This initiates the setup process for your integration, enabling you to automate your tasks efficiently.

2. Setting Up the Trigger with Wix Forms

In this step, you will configure the trigger event in Pabbly Connect. Select Wix as your trigger application and choose the event ‘New Form Submission’. This event will activate the workflow whenever a new lead is submitted through a Wix form.

• Select ‘Wix Forms’ as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New Form Submission’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

After copying the webhook URL, proceed to your Wix account. Navigate to the ‘Automations’ section and create a new automation. Set the trigger to ‘Form Submitted’ and select the specific form you wish to monitor. This will connect your Wix forms to Pabbly Connect.

3. Configuring ClickSend as the Action Application

Next, you need to set up ClickSend in Pabbly Connect as your action application. Click on the ‘Add Action’ button and select ClickSend. Choose ‘Send SMS’ as your action event. This step ensures that an SMS is sent whenever a new form submission occurs.

To connect ClickSend with Pabbly Connect, you will need your ClickSend username and API key. Log into your ClickSend account, navigate to the ‘Developers’ section, and copy your credentials. Paste these into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

4. Mapping Data for SMS Notifications

Mapping is crucial in Pabbly Connect to ensure that the correct data is sent via SMS. After connecting ClickSend, you will need to map the fields from the Wix form submission to the SMS fields. Enter the mobile number, message, and other relevant details.

• Map the mobile number with the country code.
• Compose your message, including personalized elements like the lead’s name.
• Set the schedule time for the SMS if necessary.

Once all fields are mapped correctly, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will send a test SMS to verify that the integration works as intended. Check your mobile device to confirm receipt of the SMS.

5. Testing and Verifying the Integration

Finally, to ensure everything is functioning properly, conduct a test submission through your Wix form. Fill out the form with sample data and submit it. This action will trigger the workflow in Pabbly Connect, sending an SMS to the specified number.

After submitting the form, return to Pabbly Connect to see if the webhook received the data correctly. If the SMS was sent successfully, you will receive a confirmation in your ClickSend dashboard. This confirms that your automation is active and working.
